Dual C-Br isotope fractionation indicates distinct reductive dehalogenation mechanisms of 1,2-dibromoethane in dehalococcoides - and dehalogenimonas -containing cultures

Brominated organic compounds such as 1,2-dibromoethane (1,2-DBA) are highly toxic groundwater contaminants. Multi-element compound-specific isotope analysis bears the potential to elucidate the biodegradation pathways of 1,2-DBA in the environment, which is crucial information to assess its fate in...
